[QUOTE="Gatoulis, post: 68463, member: 754"]wow!!! I have just fallen in love with this... currency!!! :) it is probably a manila currency... a trade currency of north africa.. especially for Nigerian tribes or ivory coast! there are many types, sizes etc.. some are small.. some are huge and heavy...with higher value! Europeans were making bracelets like that in europe too, to use them in africa... so.. these were used to buy women, slaves etc.... it's a beauty!!! :)[/QUOTE]
